Thanks to those folks who have written asking about the start of the new show. I can confirm the first official show will be Thursday 2nd October in the usual time slot 8 to 11pm, via www.LCR1350.co.uk (hopefully the problems downloading via Mozilla will have disappeared - but just in case use IE). In addition a pre-start of term 3hr show for this Thursday, 25th September, has been prepared (will confirm this). Already prepared next two shows as follows - dates are tentative:

Playlists originally prepared for end of September & beginning October have been removed to avoid confusion. Revamped playlist for 2nd October is now  found below.


l assume we will be able to use this thread as the live chat link - all visitors most welcome

Just checked and found the Summer sustain service is working, and I've downloaded it through Mozilla without any crashing.

Haven't gone far away. However, the radio programme fhas always followed the university's term time pattern. Therefore we're on the air 30 to 35 weeks of the year, with breaks at Christmas, Easter and  the long one over the Summer vac (mid June to late September). Trying hard to get our management to include in  their sustain service (typically midnight to 8am), specialist music slots, e.g. my case, 3 to 6 hours once or twice a week which features the eclectic mix with some emphasis on jazz. . So watch this space.

I'll be able to tune in this Thursday as well Dick, though since Thursday is usually my night out with mates from work I doubt I'll be a regular.

Just to confirm that my traditional pre-start of term, warm up show - where things may go wrong as these old hand refamilliarise themselves with the knobs - is on tonight from 8pm. As I've received the forthcoming (and indeed long awaited) Jimmy Herring Lifeboat album in the last 24 hours, there will be a bit of shuffling of the play list  to include a track - thanks to Abstract L. BTW the promo tell me far more about the PR office whilst there is nothing about which guest appear on which track doing what, either on the disc itself or the press release. Anybody help with such details?

6pm; just checked and the webstream is NOT operative - shouldn't I expected this? Checked with another part-timer (who like me has a full time job) working in the studio at the moment and discover we ain't going to get sustain/live broadcasts on the web until tomorrow evening. We are both pissed off and so NO SHOW TONIGHT. I'm sorrier than anybody else!!! So therefore we start the new series of shows next Thursday at 8pm - following the playlist for that date with some minor changes.....

Catch you next week Richard...

I'm having problems with software compatibility uploading the whole playlist with those details (certainly there on the mastersheet) - working on it. I wonder Tony R will facilitate?
